HNM Systems Launches Dedicated Data Center Practice

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 14, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- HNM Systems has announced the formal launch of its dedicated Data Center Practice, consolidating the company's growing data center business under a single leadership structure to provide greater focus, accelerate growth, and expand support for customers across the digital infrastructure ecosystem. The practice will be led by Suzanne Dunham, a seasoned enterprise technology and workforce solutions leader with over two decades of experience helping organizations scale, transform, and navigate complex growth challenges. Throughout her career, Dunham has worked across enterprise software, data science and analytics, workforce solutions, learning and development, recruiting automation, and talent intelligence, partnering with customers to improve hiring outcomes, strengthen workforce effectiveness, and drive organizational growth.

The Data Center Practice will provide workforce and professional services solutions across critical infrastructure environments, including engineering, construction management, commissioning, network operations, project controls, technical recruiting, contract staffing, contract-to-hire programs, workforce development initiatives, training programs, and specialized delivery support. The practice will serve hyperscale, colocation, enterprise, telecom, energy, and digital infrastructure organizations throughout North America. HNM combines U.S. based market expertise with global delivery capabilities across Chile, Costa Rica, Brazil, the Philippines, and India, giving customers access to broader talent pools and scalable workforce support.

The launch comes as investment in artificial intelligence, cloud computing, power infrastructure, and network modernization is accelerating demand for data center capacity. JLL projects global data center capacity will nearly double from 103 GW to 200 GW by 2030. At the same time, the U.S. construction industry is expected to require approximately 499,000 additional workers in 2026, intensifying competition for the specialized trades and technical talent required to build and operate mission-critical infrastructure.

The Data Center Practice will address the three biggest constraints facing the industry today: power availability, community engagement, and workforce capacity. Power availability and community engagement are challenges that the Data Center Practice will not directly address. The practice will focus on workforce capacity, helping customers build the talent pipelines they will need for the future. HNM will help customers find specialized talent and build the talent pipelines they will need for the future, including through structured training cohort programs that combine recruiting, training, field exposure, and skills evaluation.

Her extensive background in enterprise sales, strategic partnerships, and solving complex organizational challenges positions her to lead HNM's continued growth in the rapidly expanding data center market. The practice launches with demonstrated success supporting data center and mission-critical infrastructure customers, including helping a growing digital infrastructure organization scale its workforce to support hyperscale data center environments, identifying and evaluating more than 1,000 candidates for specialized roles, and supporting mission-critical infrastructure and network operations programs.
